Salt crystals do grow and are extremely organized for an organism but is not considered alive. The reason for this is because salt crystals do not have one single cell, and in order to be considered alive it must contain at least one cell.
it's only alive because we feel like saying it's alive... But we don't know that for sure... Or do we? Just figure that out...

A Potato growing in the ground is living, if you pick it for consumption you kill it.
So a potato is dead because it previously was living.

well salt is not made up of cells or any form of membains. Biology would say no salt is not living or ever was.

Something that is dead is non living, but something that is non living isn't necessarily dead (that's probably confusing). Example: rocks are non living but not dead. Dead means it once lived but does no more. Non living usually means it never lived. http://www.usoe.k12.ut.us/curr/science/sciber00/7th/classify/living/2.htm

Nonliving
Living things are living, breathing, eating organisms that take and contribute to their ecosystem. Nonliving things do not breathe, eat, or need water (e.g., a rock). A dead organism is a once-living creature that has become a nonliving thing.
if your asking what is the difference living is something that is alive and i think you get the point that ........... nonliving is ...............................DEAD. Or never was alive what ever you guys like best.
Mushrooms are living fungi that aid in decomposing dead animal and plant matter.
dead implies that it was once alive, but nonliving implies that it is simply matter, and never was alive.
